Contents:
Patients' presentations and how CBT helps -- Adapting therapy for older people -- Cognitive changes, executive functioning, working memory and scripts : their relevance to therapeutic engagement -- Assessment -- Case formulation -- Change techniques -- A case study in depression : Mary -- Assessing and developing clinical competence -- Use of psychotherapy in the treatment of challenging behaviours in care facilities : a staff-centred, person-focused approach.
Summary: The development of 'ageless' mental health services means that an increasing number of clinicians are now required to work with older people. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy is recognized by all recent meta-analyses as the most effective therapy, yet few clinicians are trained specifically in its usage with the elderly. This book is the first ever detailed guide to using CBT with older people both with and without cognitive difficulties, and reviews its use in different settings, covering both conceptual and practical perspectives. Ian James discusses CBT and its adaptation, moving on to review.
